Hosted in partnership by JEDI and ITANB.
The Joint Economic Development Initiative (JEDI) is an Indigenous organization dedicated to supporting Indigenous participation in New Brunswick’s economy. JEDI began in 1995 as a tripartite partnership between Indigenous communities in New Brunswick, the Government of Canada, and the Government of New Brunswick. In 2009, JEDI was incorporated as an independent, non-profit organization and over the years JEDI has grown into an Indigenous organization focused on working closely with its partners from Indigenous communities, organizations, government, and the private sector to foster Indigenous economic development in New Brunswick.
The Indigenous Tourism Association of New Brunswick (ITANB) invites people to experience the rich cultures, traditions, and stories of our Indigenous communities through unforgettable tourism offerings across the Wabanaki Territory. As a not-for-profit organization, ITANB connects people with authentic Indigenous experiences, from cultural tours and storytelling to traditional crafts and outdoor adventures. Whether you’re seeking adventure or looking to immerse yourself in the history and culture of New Brunswick’s Mi’kmaq, Wolastoqey, and Passamaquoddy communities, ITANB is your gateway to a unique and transformative experience.
